"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

Just two quick questions, for anyone that can answer them...

1. Why is it better to run cardio after you're done with the lifitng weights part of the workout? Or is it the other way around?

2. When is the window for you to consume protein after the workout is over? Some people say wait an hour, others say do it immediately.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

The window is as soon as you finish major physical effort causing protein breakdown. You will be on catabolism and will ingest amino acids plus glucose and water so that your body gets into anabolism.

DEPENDS ON WHAT YOUR GOALS ARE, IF YOUR AFTER JUST GENERAL FITNESS IT WON'T REALLY MATTER, IF YOUR LOOKING TO CHANGE YOUR BODY COMP THEN KEEP CARDIO ON OFF DAYS

2. When is the window for you to consume protein after the workout is over? Some people say wait an hour, others say do it immediately.

IMMEDIATELY RIGHT AFTER YOUR FAST CARBS
